Hungary officials gave Ukrainian forced injection' after raid on bank vehicles
"Hungarian security operatives administered a forced injection to one of the Ukrainians detained earlier this month during a dramatic raid on bank vehicles carrying gold bars and tens of millions of dollars and euros in cash."
"The injection reportedly contained a relaxant meant to predispose subjects towards becoming talkative during interrogations, but led to a hypertensive crisis for the diabetic detainee."
"One of the Ukrainian sources described the forced injection as a Russian-style method that harked back to so-called truth serums used in KGB interrogations in previous decades."
"A Hungarian police source confirmed they had heard from colleagues that an injection had been administered, but did not know what it contained."
Hungarian TEK anti-terrorism police detained seven Ukrainians from Oschadbank during a raid on bank vehicles carrying cash and gold. Hungarian officials alleged the funds were linked to the Ukrainian war mafia. One detainee, a former SBU employee, received a forced injection believed to be a relaxant, which caused a hypertensive crisis. The men were held for over 24 hours, blindfolded and handcuffed, before being deported. Traces of the drug were found in blood tests after their return to Ukraine, but the Guardian could not verify these claims.
